The new $10 million facility in Melbourne's South East is the largest Kumho facility in Australia with a floor space of 10,000 sq. metres and a capacity of more than 130,000 tyres.

According to Kumho Tyre Australia's Victorian State Manager, Leigh McDonald, the investment Kumho has made is a clear commitment to remain as a market leader and to service the growing demand in the Victorian tyre market.

"Ensuring our range of passenger, SUV, 4x4 and commercial tyres is available around the country is a priority for Kumho Australia and our new facility here in Dandenong South will enable us to better service our customers across Melbourne and the state," said Leigh.

"The multi-million dollar investment Kumho has made will help maintain strong supply to the growing Victorian market for many years to come," he added.

"Kumho is continually looking at ways to strengthen its supply chain around the world and our new distribution centre is ideally positioned near major transport links to speed deliveries and increase efficiency," Leigh said.

The new Kumho Victorian distribution hub is located just off the Monash Freeway at Carter Way. Dandenong South.

The centre is one of two new warehouses for Kumho in Australia in the past 12 months following the opening of Perth's 8,500 sq. metre distribution facility earlier this year.  (in January)
